So, I'm trying to improve my blogging. Now that we are getting the show on the road I'm sure I will be blogging more. Here is the rundown:
-Our KD, N, backed out. I am not mad at him because I understand how very huge this is, however, I am upset that he waited until 3 weeks before we start trying to tell me this.
-I was sad for a bit but then I was sitting at a stoplight on the very day that he backed out and I saw a squirrel grab a nut and run up a tree. Right there in my car I said outloud to myself "Well, at least someone got their nut today". I had a laugh and came to the conclusion that this is for the best.
-We signed our contract with the fabulous Northwest Chryobank and we have been reviewing donor profiles. Right at this very moment I'm waiting for an extended profile from them and I keep logging out and back into their website. I also keep emailing them questions that I feel are important but that I'm sure they see as very mundane.
- We should be the owners of sperm by the end of the week. WOW!
- AF is visiting this week so if my caluclations are correct we will be inseminating around October 3.
-I am thankful for the NWChryo forum and for this blog because I don't feel comfortable telling my friends and family about our journey just yet. I feel like I might jinx things. I know that sounds nuts but I am very supersticious! I can't help it. I'm always knocking on wood, walking around the ladder, closing the bathroom door & toilet seat and taping pennies in random places.
-I have high hopes for this first try. I know that is crazy because I've read all of the statistics and the blogs etc but I just feel it. October is a good month for us. J & I started dating in October 2007 and got married in October 2010. Fall is our favorite season and Halloween in our favorite holiday. I am thinking positivley as if this is the only try we will need.
-So, here we go. If you are the praying kind, please send a few up for us.
